Senior Project: Trainer and Stuka

Finished the wings. Not too bad, a little rough in some places and the bend is a few degrees short but I think it will be fine (I hope...). Tomorrow I will trim the overhang, get the connected, and start the fuselage.

Looks good 👍

MAIDEN FLIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Simple Scout flew well, a bit heavy with all the nose weights I added for balance and thus it felt a bit underpowered, but besides that it felt very nice to fly. Sadly I did crash it from inexperience (first ever RC flight) by simply overbanking and pulling as I was rolling out for final approach. I did well in correcting but I didn't have an extra two feet to not crash. Crash damage is VERY fortunate however. Wing is busted a bit, power pod crushed (motor fine), landing gear fell off (easy fix) and prop shredded. Besides that, some minor fuselage damage by where the wing shifted but everything else is perfectly fine.

Any tips on how to clean up the small dents and reinforce some areas that were stressed?
